Glen-Worden 'Thinkin' Like Lincoln' and celebrates Abraham Lincoln

The 250 students at the Glen-Worden Elementary School celebrated everything Lincoln - from his public life and statements to his dog, Fido - during the Morning Program on Feb. 9.

Coordinated by enrichment teacher Maria Maynard each class presented information, videos and other items about the nation's 16th president in recognition of his 200th birthday on Thursday, Feb. 12. The entire school sang happy birthday to the former president.

The school also saw information about the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum in Springfield, Illinois as well as a YouTube video about Lincoln.

Library Media Specialist Liz Ryan and all teachers at the school were involved in the program.
